Replace the tired starter of your quad with this aftermarket unit from Rick's Motorsport Electric, designed for muddy terrains and off-road outings. This starter (manufacturer reference 61-316) focuses on the robustness of the bearings to limit failures related to moisture and corrosion often encountered on original units.
Unlike many original starters that feature an unprotected needle bearing on the output shaft side, this model incorporates a double-sealed ball bearing with the output seal positioned outside the bearing. This design prevents water and dirt from reaching the outer bearing and makes replacement easier if necessary — a significant advantage for users facing off-road challenges.
